Load Level then target?

[mustngt]

What's the best way to load a movie into a level and then tell that movie to go to a certain frame all in the same action?

Something like:

on (press) {
loadMovieNum ("mymovie.swf", 2);
_level2.gotoAndStop(15);
}

This doesnt seem to work..it will load the movie but wont jump to the frame...any suggestions?

on (press) {
loadMovieNum ("mymovie.swf", 2);

on(release)
_level2.gotoAndStop(15);
}

Great...seems to work...one more question.....If I have a movie with say 100 frames and I want to call that movie with a mouse action and tell it to go to frame 50, does it have to wait to load the first 50 frames or will it just go there?

This is what I need to do as well.

Just one thing how do I write it ?

I have looked in the Action window and can not figger out how to write the actions.

I am sure this is easy to do but I can not find out how to do it using the Flash help files.

I believe it must load the 50 frames first.

on (press) {
loadMovieNum ("mymovie.swf", 2);

on(release)
_level2.gotoAndStop(50);
}
